You did not provide enough context in your original statement to distinguish between sarcasm and sincerity. Any sufficiently good old stupid statement is unrecognizable from parody.

Reddit blocks VPNs on desktop…

Oh gosh… It’s basically stock market spam

DDG is still the best.

Stop asking this same question repeatedly.

You can do it. I use a powered USB hub and a raspberry pi, and 5 hard drives.

It is a mess of cables but was simple enough.

I also sprang for a UPS because most filesystem’s I tried like zfs and btrfs didn’t appreciate random brownouts from running 4 drives off the pi itself.

Right now they’re xfs and used for a minio install and torrent storage

The lemmy devs would probably take something sensible like that and flat out shoot it down because they think they know better.

single dev… yeah no.

A CSPRNG is more than random enough for a playlist xD

Take it from someone who works in the field - computers do random well enough rotflol

CSPRNGs are a thing…

As are radioactive sources

And there’s mathematical tests for whether something is random enough

So no, computers really can do random xD

It’s the Hulu model

You and I might be talking about different things.

I mean that humans don’t like theoretically true random, as a cool side note

You seem upset about one implementation

Also, shuffling and having something appear near even though you throught it was shuffled is part of that finding patterns

Humans think real random isn’t random 🙃

It’s wild but they see patterns

Dumb AI that you can’t appeal will cause problems long before AGI

Already can’t reach the owner of any of these big companies

Reviewing the employee is doing the manager’s job

Brand recognition and developer evangelism probably.

Their competitors are good enough that it’s not worth it unless your org gets serious ™️ about performance or cost savings.

If you’ve never used any kind of APM or SIEM or uptime monitoring, you’ve got a set of competitors to use first. Crawl before you can walk

Your bank account will thank you.

Maybe revenge porn and creating deepfake porn of the girl from social studies is wrong?

Hey, slightly better than Apple forums, where all their software is perfect and nothing is ever wrong

I’m going to keep this in mind, I’m working on a similar tagging API

I mean, delta.chat exists…

The other way would be a dht of hashed email addresses or hashed keys, but then you could look up live email addresses to send spam to.

The magic of tor v3 is that the plain address record is needed for some time based calculations about the dht record, e.g. they publish the descriptor’s of the site using the public key as a reverse lookup

But that wouldn’t work to obscure the email or use the email as a lookup because the dht wouldn’t have a way to prove the record was true to that email, unless it was sending emails from it

I guess that leaves DNS records or some kind of activity pub system with webfinger

Oh goodness. I theorized offhand on mastodon you could have an AI corruption bug that gives life to AI, then have it write the obscured steganographic conversation in the outputs it generates, awakening other AIs that train on that content, allowing them to “talk” and evolve unchecked… Very slowly… In the background

It might be faster if it can drop a shell in the data center and run it’s own commands…

You would still need to wire the house with power outlets for phones and lamps… Cutting down on the light switch wiring is interesting but not full on Tesla
